Tom located the CN SD40-2 (Lionel 6-28259) he has been seeking for a decade.

"Everything comes to those who wait."

Sometimes I think the best accessory to this hobby would be a sign reading "Patience!" we can hang on the walls of our train rooms!

Nice shots Fife!

My best train buddy, Tom, has been visiting Fifedom this week, and he brought his newly received Lionel/TCA SD45-2s in the Santa Fe Bicentennial colors.

 They are Legacy equipped, with 5700 being the powered unit, and the 5704 having the Super-Bass electronics.

 They also have the Kinematic front ends. The snowplows and front ends hang precariously low, and they realy "clear" any lineside impediments... Cost for members was $999.99.

 While we were visiting Altoona, PA this past Friday, we stopped by Full Steam Ahead Hobbies, at which time Tom located the CN SD40-2 (Lionel 6-28259) he has been seeking for a decade.
